The 3X of 3X is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.517 billion 3Xians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient 3Xian economy, worth a remarkable 4,358 trillion Golds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 177,783 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Foreign musicians that Leader dislikes are turned away at the border, the nation has always been at war with Moltovea, citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, and squeaky high prepubescent voices recite the patriotic poem "Hail to The Leader!" before each meal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 3X's national animal is the Elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
3X is ranked 333,344th in the world and 289th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Most Cultured, scoring 26 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
